Wave Hill has a lot in store for July

This is next to last Sunset Wednesday of the summer at Wave Hill, and high time to schedule an evening in the gardens. Reserve a Sunset Supper and a session with poet Rachel Simon, or just find a quiet nook to curl up in a Wave Hill chair for a birdy serenade as the sun begins to set.
